Parting out 701
I'm having to part out my 2014 701. FWF is already gone. Anything you need at half price or less. No accident, just family issues, moving, and not willing to take on any liability in retirement.

Doug,
I managed to crack my 701 windscreen at the upper starboard corner (~1.5" length) fighting the installation of the folding wing mechanism. I started searching replacements or repair and found the folks that manufacture the windscreen for Zenith. http://www.lpaero.com/careins.html
I called them and they were most helpful in finding a solution for me to repair the crack. Lots of good info on the website too. Since the location of my crack would not impair my visibility to any great extent, I drilled a small hole at the end of the crack to stop any further lengthening and made the repair as they described. It works well.
I can't remember what the costs were but they did offer to send me a CH-701 replacement at a good price if the repair was not acceptable.

Thanks Kurt, I'll check with them. I'm afraid my crack is about 8 inches long, down into the field of view. It already had a 1" crack when I installed it, but when I was removing it for a "Beanie Mod" I pulled too hard and it went "POP!", and the rest is history!

This one has a very small crack on the upper left corner tab which was stopped and glued. The field of vision is perfect, if you are interested.

Here's a pic of the crack. I'd like 175 plus shipping. I'm in central California if pick up would be possible

Well we wish we weren't here either, but we will be moving to North Texas sometime within the next 6-8 months. I don't have any hard commitments on the gear yet.

Roger,
I'm in Wylie a NE suburb of Dallas. I just moved my 701 project to a local boatyard (outgrew my garage and no hangar space available in north Texas) for rigging. Check in with me at any time.

We're still in Calif. Should be in Tx around November.
